Review: One Day in September: The Full Story of the 1972 Munich Olympics Massacre and the Israeli Revenge Operation "Wrath of God"

One Day in September: The Full Story of the 1972 Munich Olympics Massacre and the Israeli Revenge Operation One Day in September: The Full Story of the 1972 Munich Olympics Massacre and the Israeli Revenge Operation "Wrath of God" by Simon Reeve
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Simon Reeve’s research is compelling and the manner of narration is powerful. A semblance of the weight of the tragedy bears down as you read, slowly drawing from you the visceral and the impossible. There is so much sorrow, with narrow beams of dissipated hope.

I would like to think it offers a balanced view of the crisis, though I don’t feel qualified to judge that specific aspect.

I almost cried at the end.
